NEW ORLEANS - LSU football coach Les Miles spoke Sunday night for the first time about the NCAA's recent visit to LSU to ask Miles and his staff about its contacts with prospect scout Willie Lyles, who is the subject of an NCAA investigation concerning the possibility that he steers players to colleges for pay.

"I think it's fundamental. I think it's necessary. We're going to comply. We're going to be very cooperative," Miles said before speaking to fans at the Riverside Hilton as part of his off-season speaking tour. "That's really all I can say."
